What is ERP for an ISP?

ERP for an ISP connects financial management with network projects, inventory, purchasing, fixed assets, and reporting. Subscriber billing, provisioning, and network operations can remain in the systems already supporting those functions.

Can Acumatica work alongside an existing OSS/BSS?

Yes. Your subscriber billing, provisioning, and network systems can stay in place. Acumatica manages the accounting, projects, assets, inventory, purchasing, and reporting side of the business, giving finance and leadership current information.

How can Acumatica track network buildout and project costs?

A network build can be tracked as a project, with labor, materials, contractor costs, and committed costs tracked throughout the build. Costs can accumulate in construction in progress, then move into fixed assets when the network is placed in service.

Can Acumatica manage fiber, CPE, and other network inventory?

Yes. Acumatica can track fiber, CPE, network equipment, and project materials across warehouses, trucks, and job sites, including serial numbers where needed. Materials issued to a network build can also be costed to the project.

Can Acumatica support multiple entities or operating companies?

Yes. Acumatica can support operating companies, holding companies, and other business entities in one system, with intercompany transactions and consolidated reporting across the organization.
